The introductory blurb says I should introduce myself. My name is Janet Jackson; I am a freelance Unix consultant. I mainly work on projects related to systems administration, so naturally I have a general interest in systems security. More specifically, one of my current projects is to design and implement a security module for a vendor of systems management software. This will include detection of intruders both at the point of [attempted] entry, and through audit trail processing. The latter is the harder problem! I am therefore interested in what approaches have been tried, and also in what software is out there that my client's module may be able to interface with. ---------------------------------------------- Janet Jackson <janet@dialix.oz.au> 56 Kennedy Street, Maylands WA 6051, Australia Phone/Fax +61 9 272 5061 U N I X A N D O P E N S Y S T E M S Configuration Technical Writing Networking Troubleshooting Software Development Training ----------------------------------------------
